Ingredients

1 cup vegetable shortening
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup molasses
1 cup corn syrup white or golden
1 1/2 cup milk
3 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ginger
2 teaspoons cinnamon
6 cups flour, all-purpose

Directions

Cream the shortening and sugar. Add the eggs, molasses and syrup. Then sift together the dry ingredients and alternately stir in the flour and milk. Bake for 5 to 8 minutes in a 375 degree oven. The molasses in the cookies make them very prone to burn so check often.

The recipe could be halved as this makes about 80 cookies!
